2005 Frenzy Rookie Draft Commentary

Royal Hawaiian Opihi · May 4th, 2005, 09:01 PM

Okay, now that we're unofficially into the 2005 rookie draft... let's see what others think of the picks being made. Mike & Joe have already started the bantering off with the 1.01 and 1.02 picks... onward & upward, gang!

Preds · May 4th, 2005, 09:02 PM

How about you start by offering your opinion on the picks thus far!

Royal Hawaiian Opihi · May 4th, 2005, 09:04 PM

Okay... I probably would have made the same pick as Mike, had I the 1.01 slot. I think Gruden will run with one RB now that he's got a workhorse. I don't have Ronnie Brown ranked as low as Mike does, and he may very well be a stud down the road... but as for making an immediate impact, I think the Caddy was a wise choice.

:GoodPost

BTW, I spoke with Kyle, he needs to do a little research, but is likely to pick at 1.3 later tonight.

Nate, you ready with the 1.4 pick?

Top 4 RBs are now gone. This is where things get interesting!

yeah where everything drops off big time. just not as many blue chippers this year compared with last year IMO

Nittany Dodgers · May 5th, 2005, 11:11 AM

FYI, I'll be away from a computer all weekend, so if my pick doesn't come up before late Friday afternoon, I won't be picking until Monday.

Flaxwless · May 5th, 2005, 03:12 PM

Sorry guys. I plan on using as much time as I need to explore every option... i.e. trading down.

Thats what you guys get for giving me until Tuesday!

K, I'll start us off

Not Interested! One less team for you to worry about dealing with.

Any others want to bow out on the front end so Frank can be more timely with a pick so we can get to Jake's picks?

Jake will be out of town early next week for a few days, so we were trying to get things in early this week.

Nittany Dodgers · May 5th, 2005, 03:30 PM

Not interested.

(Those of you familiar with the KQ morning show and the Brainerd "Cash Call" clip will find extra enjoyment in my response. So I guess I'm alone in that).

Flaxwless · May 5th, 2005, 03:31 PM

Don't worry Mike.... if there's a deal to be made it'll be done by tomorrow.

That's cool, I'm just trying to help Jake out (why I have no idea) ;)

And I appreciate it.

Mutts · May 5th, 2005, 06:48 PM

I'm not interested either... can't fault you for trying Frank, but I've yet to see a successful trade out of the mid 1st round yet this year. The drop off is too big after the top 4, and the second tier of players is massive.

Philadelphia Freedom · May 9th, 2005, 04:01 PM

I am out until tomorrow morning (hopefully Jake will be able to make his pick and we can get rolling in the am).

I've left a message with Jake regarding his pick on his cell (as he and I previously discussed). I'll post it when I hear back from him. Do you mind if we calkl you when your up? If not, PM me your number. Thx.

Mutts · May 10th, 2005, 09:24 AM

Hey guys. Sorry about the delay. My phone was off as I toured the Supreme Court and Library of Congress yesterday, and by the time I received Mike's message it was too late to call. The guy I've targeted is available, so I'll make my pick soon.

Philadelphia Freedom · May 11th, 2005, 04:01 PM

I swear that this went much quicker last year. I am off for the night but hopefully can make my next pick in the morning.

Philadelphia Freedom · May 12th, 2005, 06:29 PM

I am out for the night I will check back tomorrow morning.

Royal Hawaiian Opihi · May 12th, 2005, 07:59 PM

I'll be around tomorrow morning for just a few moments (prior to 2pm EST)... then I'll be gone the rest of the day, and not able to check back in until about 6am EST Saturday morning... just a heads up in case we get to that oh-so-crucial 4th round (with all of our practice squadders!).

Nittany Dodgers · May 12th, 2005, 08:41 PM

I'm out until Monday, so if we happen to get to the end of the 4th, you can skip me and i'll catch up on Monday. I don't think it will matter all that much.

Liquid Swords · May 13th, 2005, 07:04 PM

I'll probably be out until after the Pacers game on Sunday.
